Chapter 55: Leave it to me (Updated)
Xu Xiaoyue had just returned not long ago when she heard from Aunt Wang that something happened at the supermarket. Zheng Jiaojiao, who had originally been asking for leave, rushed over directly.
Xu Xiaoyue was already feeling guilty for skipping work, and upon hearing this, she changed her clothes and hurried over.
As soon as she reached the door, she heard a quarrel coming from inside. When she listened carefully, the voices sounded familiar.
"I don't care. What I wanted was a shirt with pearls and a different pattern. Manager Yan, take a look at what she made for me."
Ruan Wei's angry voice was heard, and she threw the clothes in her hand directly at Manager Yan with a very ugly look on her face.
At the beginning, although she deliberately proposed to sew the clothes on Xu Xiaoyue as performance costumes in order to please her, the art troupe really needed performance costumes.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She didn't want to even look at the ugly thing in front of her.
Not to mention the crooked pearls sewn on the clothes, even the patterns on the clothes were crooked. They even told her they were peony and morning glory or something like that. He was simply trying to fool her.
Zheng Jiaojiao was watching from the side, and she also felt very aggrieved. Wasn't this just what Ruan Wei asked?
The pearls she wanted and different patterns were all sewn on, and this person still gave her trouble.
"Manager Yan, I clearly did it according to their requirements. They can't just deny my efforts just because they are not satisfied!"
Zheng Jiaojiao spoke indignantly, not noticing that Manager Yan's face was getting darker and darker.
"Shut up, don't you think things are chaotic enough?" Manager Yan frowned and scolded.
If she had known that Zheng Jiaojiao was as stupid as a pig, she would have beaten herself to death rather than being possessed by the evil spirit and recruiting people here.
Since she came, I have had a few more grey hairs. I am so worried.
As for the dress she made, Manager Yan didn't want to comment too much. Those who knew her thought she had embroidered a flower on it, while those who didn't would think it was a bunch of weeds at first glance.
Manager Yan pressed the throbbing veins on her forehead. If she hadn't thought that there was no one else in this position, she would have fired Zheng Jiaojiao.
Zheng Jiaojiao was scolded, her eyes were red, and she looked at Ruan Wei angrily.
Ruan Wei had been spoiled since she was a child, and seeing that Zheng Jiaojiao dared to glare at her, the anger in her heart rose to her head.
"What are you looking at? I'm telling you, I don't want any of this batch of clothes."
"Also, I advise you not to take on a job that is too shabby to be done. It's disgusting just to look at it."
Ruan Wei kept talking non-stop, and Zheng Jiaojiao was so angry that she wanted to tear her mouth apart.
The scene was in chaos. Manager Yan was annoyed by the noise. He looked up and met the eyes of Xu Xiaoyue, who was leaning against the door watching the fun.
Manager Yan's eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward and said, "What are you doing standing there?"
"This dress is a replica of what you made back then. See if there is any way to repair it."
Xu Xiaoyue's eyes fell on the clothes and she was stunned for two seconds before she could figure out what Zheng Jiaojiao had embroidered on them.
If she remembered correctly, Ruan Wei seemed to have asked Zheng Jiaojiao to embroider different patterns on each of her clothes, but this mess in front of her, could it be Zheng Jiaojiao's pattern?
Ruan Wei also saw Xu Xiaoyue, but she turned her head away and pretended not to see it.
In order to irritate Xu Xiaoyue, she deliberately asked Zheng Jiaojiao to help her, but she didn't expect that Zheng Jiaojiao did a terrible job, and now Xu Xiaoyue was laughing at her for nothing. She was simply shooting herself in the foot.
Seeing Xu Xiaoyue remained silent, Manager Yan didn't care about that anymore and urged, "Can you or can't you? Give me a definite answer."
She had already reported this order in advance. If Ruan Wei changes her mind now and wants to cancel it, it would be like having her heart dug out.
Xu Xiaoyue took the clothes and looked at them carefully. "It's not that it can't be repaired, but Manager Yan, reworking it is not my job."
Manager Yan paused for a moment, and then narrowed her eyes. "Then tell me, what are your requirements?"
She thought to herself that Xu Xiaoyue was really smart and would not suffer any loss.
"Now I have to dismantle the clothes and make them again. I won't even mention how time-consuming it is. It also takes a lot of thought and effort. Either I have to use a new batch of clothes to make them."
"Or I can take it apart and mend it again at the price of fifty cents per piece of clothing."
"Fifty cents?" Ruan Wei, who was listening nearby, couldn't help but turn her head to look at the woman.
"What are you thinking about? Do you know how many pieces of clothing there are? Have you ever calculated how much they are when each piece is fifty cents?"
She had just calmed down, but her chest heaved with anger again because of Xu Xiaoyue's words.
Ruan Wei thought, Xu Xiaoyue might as well just rob him, it would make money faster.
Faced with the woman's ridicule, Xu Xiaoyue calmly put the clothes in her hand into Manager Yan's hand.
"Since Comrade Ruan thinks this dress is wearable, then you can wear it and just settle the payment directly. I don't want to make a profit from your small amount of money."
She looked calm, and it didn't seem like she was pretending.
Seeing that Xu Xiaoyue was really going to leave, Ruan Wei became anxious again and quickly winked at Manager Yan.
Manager Yan was also in a dilemma. At 50 cents per piece, all these clothes would cost seven or eight yuan. It wasn't too expensive, but where would the money come from? became a problem.
As she was thinking, she glanced at Zheng Jiaojiao who was standing next to her like a wooden stick, and came up with an idea.
"Why are you leaving? Come back here." Manager Yan shouted.
"If you say 50 cents, then it's 50 cents. The clothes were ruined by Jiaojiao anyway, so your wages will be deducted from her salary."
"Why? I haven't made any money at all, so why should I invest money in it?" Zheng Jiaojiao felt even more aggrieved. According to her, there was no difference between the dress she had made and the one Xu Xiaoyue bought. Why did she have to rush to make it again?
Just make it happen again. She only earned a few dollars this month, why is her salary deducted again?
Xu Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows. Something even happier than making extra money happened. That was making money from her arch-enemy.
She turned around and said with a playful smile, "Manager Yan, why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll take care of the clothes."
